high quality, hand knotted rugs, for
example Berber or Persian rugs, as
well as extremely long piled area
rugs and carpets. There is a danger
of the threads being pulled out. Turn
the Powerbrush off to vacuum these
types of floor coverings and use only
suction.
The Powerbrush is particularly suitable
for cleaning and restoring crushed
carpet pile of wall to wall carpeting and
floor coverings subject to hard wear,
especially in high traffic areas.

handpiece
The Electro hoses SES 116, SES 117,
SES 118 and SES 119 are equipped
with a switch on the hand piece, which
allows the Powerbrush to be turned on
and off separately.
This allows you to vacuum without the
beater bar is desired, e.g. switching
from carpet to hard flooring.
Frequently asked questions
What if the Powerbrush automatically
shuts off?
The vacuum has overheated. The
temperature limiter automatically turns
the vacuum off.
This can occur if, for instance, large
articles block the suction tube or when
the filter bag is full or contains particles
of fine dust. A heavily soiled exhaust or
dust compartment filter can also be the
cause of overheating.
^
Turn the vacuum off and pull the plug
from the outlet.
^
Inspect the vacuum hose / wand and
all filters.
It is important to allow the Powerbrush
to cool off. It should be ready for use
again in approx. 10 minutes.
^
Plug in the vacuum cleaner and
switch it back on.
Maintenance and care
Removing threads and hair
^ Turn off and unplug the vacuum
cleaner.
^ Use scissors to cut any threads or
hair that have wound around the
roller brush.
The trimmings will be vacuumed up
once the vacuum is turned on again.
